What To Do If You Have Bed Bugs

Protecting your home is the only thing you need to do if you have bed bugs. Bed bugs are known for their stubbornness. Once they latch onto a furniture or bed, they are soon to be found in other kinds of bedding, sofas, boxes, and clothing.

Bed bugs can live for months without feeding, but research suggests they feed on human blood for up to 10 days at a stretch. This makes them extremely dormant. It’s important to stay vigilant when dealing with bed bugs. They are known for their resilience when hiding in corners or under furniture.

More importantly, avoid taking old furniture into your home without having cleaned it of dust and debris. This is one of the major causes of a bed bug infestation. Old mattresses, moist and damp bedspreads and furniture are breeding grounds for bed bugs. So if you visually inspect even a single bed bug in your room, it’s time to take action.
